Step 1: Gather Your Ingredients

First, gather the following ingredients: eggs, milk, cinnamon, vanilla extract, bread slices (preferably thick-cut), butter, and your choice of toppings such as maple syrup, powdered sugar, or fresh fruits.

Step 2: Prepare the Egg Mixture

In a shallow bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, a dash of cinnamon, and a splash of vanilla extract. This mixture creates the rich custard that will coat your bread slices, giving them that classic French toast flavor. ( the amount of milk is dependant on the number of eggs. Eggs should always be the predominate ingredient.

Step 3: Soak the Bread Slices

Dip each bread slice into the egg mixture, ensuring both sides are well-coated but not soggy. Allow any excess mixture to drip off before proceeding to the next step.

Step 4: Cook the French Toast

Melt butter in a skillet over medium heat. Once the butter is bubbling, add the soaked bread slices to the skillet. Cook each side until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes per side. Adjust the heat as needed to prevent burning.

Step 5: Serve and Enjoy

Remove the French toast from the skillet and place it on a plate. Top with your favorite toppings such as maple syrup, powdered sugar, or fresh fruits. Serve warm and enjoy this delectable breakfast treat!
